If you’ve lived in California for a while, or know someone who has, chances are you’ve heard horror stories about the California probate court. You’ve been told how frustrating, time-consuming and expensive it is, and that it seems to go on forever. We’d like to dispel your fears about California probate, but unfortunately, what you’ve heard is essentially true. Worse, families are forced to deal with it while grieving the loss of a loved one.

The average probate in California takes about one year to complete, and in some situations, considerably longer. Fees are set by the court and are among the highest in the nation.

As Pasadena Probate Attorneys, we understand what you are going through, and can handle every aspect of the probate process for you, as quickly as possible, with minimal stress to you and your family. We will take the burden off your shoulders so that you and your loved ones can focus on what is most important — coming to terms with your loss and moving on with your lives.
